Beautiful weather to do some work around the farm.

Do you think you know what’s going on in the world these days? Were you aware of this?

Here’s an explanation that the legacy media would never, dare share with you.

Go Woke, Go Broke

In a new segment of the Podcast of the Lotus Eaters, we learn about Alissa Heinerscheid, a hyper-woke executive, who appears to be behind one of the worst marketing decisions in the history of American business. Incidentally, there’s a Wilfrid-Laurier connection too!

More analysis

Incidentally, in case you missed it last November, this op-ed about Head Girls explains why they are so incredibly dangerous, to society and to beer companies.

Update: Matt Walsh chimes in about Head Girl Heinerscheid. Is anyone surprised that a Harvard & Wharton grad HATES typical Bud Light customers?! Asking for a friend.

And now you know why Moe pushed the Saskatchewan First Act

Federal justice minister David Lametti “looking at” taking away natural resources from provinces. Scott Moe says national unity at stake. This is precisely what the Saskatchewan First Act, proclaimed April 6, is about.

Notably, the request for the feds to take away control of natural resources from the provinces of Manitoba, Alberta an Saskatchewan came from the grand chief of the Prince Albert Grand Council. The federal minister will “look at” it.

Zombie mortgages

entitlement generation Great Moments In Socialism It's Probably Nothing 45 Comments

If you are wondering why mortgage rates in the 5 to 7 percent range have not triggered a wave of defaults, here’s your answer.

If anyone thinks there’s no downside to this, think again. Any decline in housing prices has largely been arrested, thus making it just as tough as ever for first time home buyers to purchase a house. Allowing negative amortization essentially turns home buyers into the equivalent of deadbeat tenants, while locking up the capital of bond investors far beyond what they signed up for. We now have the worst of both worlds.

‘Liberals in trouble’ sayeth the pollsters.

China’s attempts to meddle in Canadian elections is dragging Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s Liberals down in the court of public opinion, and if the hemorrhaging of support does not stop, it could mean serious trouble for the government in the next election, say pollsters.

“The interference issue has long legs, and that there’s some twist and turn in the narrative,” said Nik Nanos, chief data scientist for Nanos Research, in an interview with The Hill Times. “The Liberals should be quite concerned because what they have to worry about is that the current Conservative advantage consolidates and the longer that the numbers stay here, it becomes the new normal, and it will require more effort to dislodge the trend line.”

According to last week’s rolling poll by Nanos Research, the Conservatives were leading the pack with the support of 35.7 per cent of Canadians, followed by the Liberals with 28.3 per cent. The New Democratic Party was at 19.4 per cent, the Greens at 5.1 per cent, and the People’s Party of Canada at 4.1 per cent.

Children R Our Future Mischief Is Important 7 Comments

Professor Wax has been mentioned here once or twice before. Generally regarding her observations of everyday phenomena that are seemingly unmentionable, at least on campus, and the performative indignation and outright hysteria that reliably ensues. As when students, supposedly adult intellectuals, claimed that the professor’s mere presence on campus was “physically and emotionally harming all of us,” with the law school’s Dean, Theodore Ruger, invoking the “lasting trauma” of hearing her speak.

On questions that mustn’t be asked, and things that mustn’t be said, among fearless intellectuals.

hmmm….

Our South Dakota custom cutter said he took six combines to Kiowa and the farmer there said he may not need any of them. A third of his crop is already zeroed out and in another 1-2 weeks, another third will be gone. The South Dakota cutter said we will probably be his only stop between the Gulf of Mexico and South Dakota. I told him we still had a crop but if it continues to not rain, we’ll start seeing severe drought stress showing up along with tiller abortion. Already this will be one of the shortest crops with headed-out wheat being less than 10 inches high.

We have poor numbers of tillers and they are weak and small and we could easily lose a lot of them. We should joint in mid-April. For this area and here on our farm, this will be one of the worst wheat crops in the past 50 years. We have farmed 48 years and aside from 1981, this has potential for being the worst.

The South Dakota cutter also said one of his custom cutter buddies who takes 12 combines to Stanton, Colorado, said there is nothing there. For extreme southwest Kansas, this year is just like last year −no dryland wheat at all. If it’s not irrigated, you have no wheat. Too, the Texas and Oklahoma panhandles are the same as last year with 80% abandonment.

Rewriting history

Gain of Function I, Napoleon nannystate 11 Comments

Normally I would suggest reading a book as opposed to judging it according to a review, but in this case I would have to admit that it’s probably not worth whatever the bookseller wants for it.

It’s one thing to claim that your pandemic strategies were undertaken with good intentions, but to not even acknowledge some obvious falsehoods that affected the decision making process takes dishonesty to a whole new level.

To recap, Deborah Birx—the woman who did more than almost any other person in the United States to promote and prolong COVID lockdowns, and attempted, with the support of mainstream media outlets, to silence anyone who disagreed with her—tells us in 2022 that she’d been inspired in her work by images that were widely known to have been faked (as if the real images of old age homes in Italy and elsewhere weren’t bad enough) before the lockdowns even started.

That’s Chapter 1.

She also admits that her guidance regarding the maximum allowable size of social gatherings—10 people—was arbitrary, because her real goal was zero—no social contact of any kind, anywhere…
